Seeing the numerals “11” create interesting discourse, especially when there are a pair of them together. While we’ll never see another November 11, 2011 (11/11/11), there will be one November 11 each year and the clock will display 11:11 two times each day. But what’s supposed to happen when people see 11:11 on a clock or on a calendar? The general superstition about these angel numbers is that seeing them means it’s time to take a breath, imagine a peaceful moment and make a wish. Think of it as a mini-meditation.
If you see the numbers on a car license plate or a store receipt, that could make someone believe this was a purposeful moment instead of happenstance. Others aren’t so sure. Just like any other number, a combination of numerals are going to show up regardless. To the skeptics, this is no different from playing a game of Monopoly and hoping for doubles on dice. Still, even in that moment, who decided that double numbers must be the chosen way to move their token, roll again or take another turn? Do it three times, and the Monopoly player is forced to go to jail. Even while in jail, all it takes to get out again is to roll another double.
But what if you met someone at 11:11 a.m., 11:11 p.m. or on 11/11? What does 11:11 mean in love? Is it as bad as “going to jail” or as good as getting a second chance to move forward?
Why Is 1111 More Significant Than Other Angel Numbers?
When angel numbers (number sequences made up of three or four digits that exhibit repetition like 888 or 4444 and/or patterns such as 456 and 8686) are visible, the belief is that these numbers are messages from your guardian angels and the spiritual universe that offers insight, wisdom and directionality. But when it comes to 1111 specifically, this set of numbers is believed to be new beginnings, a new journey or a thumbs up that you’re on the right path.
Some celebrities who were born on this day include Melanie Liburd (Zoe, Beth’s cousin and Kevin’s ex on This Is Us), Anthony Hill (Dr. Winston Ndugu on Grey’s Anatomy), musician Jon Batiste (former band leader on Stephen Colbert’s The Late Show), Camille Hyde (Thea on All American Homecoming) and Willard Carroll “Trey” Smith III (Will Smith‘s oldest son). Whether celebrity or everyday person, people born on this day are believed to be idealistic, with a strong need for emotional security. Close relationships are an integral part of their happiness. They need loyalty and affection, and may be accused of being noticeably serious and insecure. They are also naturally charming and tend to be popular.
What Does 11:11 Mean In Love?
If you happen to meet someone new at 11:11 a.m., 11:11 p.m. or on November 11, there are some superstitions about that. Centre of Excellence says the following: “Many people believe that 1111 is a soulmate number. It’s thought to represent the coming together of two souls destined to be together.” For singles who see the number, a meaningful relationship is about to start. If you’re already in a relationship, this number can supposedly deepen the bond.
But let’s say you’re not so sure about whether 11:11 means love or strengthens the bond. Then what? Do you turn down your partner when the suggestion is made to get married on November 11? How do you handle the preacher who doesn’t want to say, “You’re now husband and wife. You may kiss the bride” at 11:11 on the dot? Or, what about the veteran husband or wife who would much rather focus on Veterans Day (this federal holiday is always on November 11) than think about numbers?
The truth is everybody else doesn’t have to believe in the angel numbers; only you do. The same way people can meditate alone or pray alone or enjoy a vacation alone, seeing 1111 is a friendly reminder to take care of one’s physical, mental and emotional health in the relationship. If your significant other is speaking to you at 11:11, listen more intensely than you usually would. Let them know that they have your full attention. Even if your partner isn’t particularly sold on the numerical idea, this need to create balance and harmony in the relationship is a win-win for both of you.
